CHICAGO, Sept. l4.--Late this afternoon
the condemned anarchists were allowed
to take exercise in the covered Jail court

all attempts TO interview them

editor, in announcing the decision says
The supreme court in Ottawa, the legal
instrument of capitalistic reign has
affirmed the outrageous verdict
which decided that seven of our
best comrades shall suffer the death of
martyrs for the cause of the laboring
people, and that eight shall serve a 10
year sentence in the penitentary. We
are, however, the adhereuts of Spies ard

revenge at any iuopportune time, but we
will do everything that remains to be

Black Will Make an Effort to Garry the
Case Up.

CHICAGO, Sept. 14.-When a reporter
announced the decision to Capt. Black
defender of the anarchists, he said:
The only remaining course for us to
pursue, is to take the case to the United
States supreme court. shall immedi-
ately GO before the supreme court at OF
tawa and ask for reasonable time TO
secure a certified transcript of the rec
ord for presentation to the supreme
court at Washington. Such proceedings
are rare, but haven't any doubt of the
courts decision on that point. Lawyers
generally believe that there is scarcely
possibility of the anarchists being able
to get their case before the federal su-
preme court ON constitutional grounds
their last and only hope except commute
ton of sentence which the governor will
not dare to order.

New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE news of the
affirmation by the supreme court of Hi
nois Of the decision of the lower court in
the condemned Chicago anarchist case,
caused great excitement among the New
York socialists and anarchists. Herr Most
was furious. His anarchist paper, Fret
heitl had Just gone TO press when the news
came, The forms were ordered from the
press. Most rolled up his sleeves and
proceeded TO write an editorial addressed
''to the workmen Of all countries" The
editorial was column and half long
and written IN his characteristic and
violent style. He characterizes the
Judges who made the decision as
''infamous and bloodthirsty FOOLS" and
the jury as corrupt. November 18th
was the day set for the murder of those
"heroes." Capitalists wished TO see blood
flow, to show the people that they were
law and could do as they pleased. Work
ingmen, says he will your peaceably al
low this TO take placer" The cruel deed
of November Il, could be prevented if
anarchists so wished. Workingmen must
show their military strength. An indig-
nation mass meeting must be held at
once and money raised to fight
the battle Of justice and the salvation OF
martyrs. Most goes on TO demand de-
cision in the case from the United States
supreme court and says that agitating
meetings should be held all over the
country until the court dare not declare
the law constitutional.
Editor Sheyitch, of the Leader, the
recognized leader of the socialistic ele-
ment in this city, fercely denounced the
affirmation Of the verdict.

the record is free from error, for / do
not think IT is. J am neverthe-
less of the opinion that none of the
errors complained of are of so serious a
character as to require a reversal of the
Judgment. In view OF the number of
defendants on trial, the length of time it
was in progress, the vast amount of testi-
mony offered and passed upon by the
court and the almost numberless rulings
the court was required to make, the won
der with me is that errors were not
more numerous and more serious
than they we're. In short, after
having carefully examined the records
and given all the questions arising upon
it my very best thorghts, with an earnest
and conscientious desire to faithfully
discharge my whole duty l am fully sat
isfied that the conclusion reached indi-
Gates the law does simple justice between
the prisoners and the state and that it is
